    Abstract: OECD's Territorial Review of the Valencian Central Districts of Spain. It finds that the future of the region in an era of globalisation is uncertain. At a time when producer services are becoming critical to the success of goods producing industries, will the small settlements that characterise the Valencian Central Districts be able to maintain their competitive position? And should they find new forms of partnership in order to increase their capacity to make investments? The aim of this Territorial Review is to provide practical policy advice on how the area can respond to new challenges by enhancing potential opportunities.

    Abstract: Road freight transport for own account represents a major share of inland transport in Europe and, depending on the country concerned, accounts for two to five times the tonnage carried by rail. Despite its importance, however, own account transport tends to be overlooked since it is not regarded as a logistics activity, whereas it is, in fact, a vital transport function that is changing radically as firms increasingly outsource their distribution activities to commercial hauliers. The scale of road freight transport for own account, the impact of regulatory changes and the future of the sector are the themes addressed in the introductory reports and the experts’ discussions outlined in this publication.

    Keywords: Transport ; Konferenzschrift 1998 ; Seehafen ; Verkehrsanbindung ; Wettbewerbsfähigkeit
    Abstract: In recent years, the substantial expansion in containerisation, the advent of megacarriers, the race for ever larger container-ships and higher-volume flows, have revolutionised intercontinental transport. These changes have entailed considerable reductions in maritime transport costs, which has made distant countries extremely accessible. The most costly component of the international traffic transport chain is now the inland leg, which explains why forwarders are so keen to gain control over inland transport operations. On land, road is the dominant mode, but with infrastructure congestion, rail and inland waterways also have a part to play. Under what conditions could these last two modes capture a larger share of inland transport? Rail cannot be really competitive without a dedicated freight network, and inland waterways will only get to play a significant role if transhipment costs are cut. Couldn’t greater competition within these two modes generate productivity gains and better quality services? The Round Table provided the opportunity to address the whole issue of competitiveness in inland transport modes and identified guidelines on land access to ports for policy-makers.

    Abstract: Private initiatives for corporate responsibility have been a major development in international management over the last twenty years. The initiatives include issuance of codes of business conduct, implementation of management systems and broader efforts to improve business accountability. Yet, there is little agreement about what these initiatives mean or how effective they are. OECD research on private initiatives sheds light on various aspects of the corporate responsibility movement: what are firms and business associations doing? How have governments influenced the initiatives? What contributions, if any, have these initiatives made to improving the business sector’s ability to comply with law and regulation and to respond to broader societal expectations?

    Abstract: How should governments tax e-commerce? What does e-commerce mean for existing international tax principles and systems? What are the administrative challenges of taxing e-commerce, and how can these be tackled? How can governments harness the new technology to improve taxpayer service and reduce compliance costs? These are just some of the pressing questions addressed in this book. This volume provides a comprehensive guide to the status of the OECD-led international work on these questions, and hence to emerging conclusions and recommendations across a wide span of tax policy and tax administration issues. It sets out the latest thinking of the OECD's Committee on Fiscal Affairs on the taxation aspects of electronic commerce, and on progress toward implementing the Ottawa Taxation Framework Conditions. It includes a number of documents for public review and comment, and details the outputs from the past two years' intensive dialogue with the international business community and with non-member economies. As such it is an invaluable reference for all those interested in how governments around the globe are responding to the taxation challenges presented by e-commerce.

    Keywords: Urban, Rural and Regional Development ; Italy
    Abstract: La province de Bergame, située en Lombardie, est une des régions les plus dynamiques de l’Italie.. L’économie se caractérise par une haute compétitivité, un bon degré de diversification et une grande ouverture vers les exportations ; la productivité se situe au-dessus de la moyenne nationale et le chômage est pratiquement inexistant. Il est vraisemblable que le caractère varié de la région ainsi que l’abondance de ses atouts culturels et environnementaux transforment la province en une destination touristique prisée. La réussite de la province n’est pourtant pas une certitude. Bergame doit encore relever une série de défis, comme par exemple améliorer son système éducatif ou établir des infrastructures dans le domaine des transports qui répondent à la fois aux besoins de la population et des entreprises. Cet examen fournit des recommandations pratiques sur la manière d’appliquer de nouvelles politiques. L’examen territorial de Bergame fait partie d’un programme plus vaste d’examens territoriaux, aux niveaux national et régional, menés par le Comité des Politiques de Développement Territorial de l’OCDE. L’objectif général de cette série est de fournir des recommandations pratiques de politique aux gouvernements. Les Examens territoriaux portent sur trois types de régions (urbain, intermédiaire, rural). Ils contribuent à enrichir la compréhension des défis auxquels sont confrontées ces régions ainsi que des solutions concrètes pour y faire face.

    Abstract: Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) introduce a new relationship between time and space. Do the nascent possibilities of tele-work, distant access to public services and e-commerce offer both realistic and innovating perspectives for rural development? Are ICTs a threat rather than an opportunity for rural areas? Will these technologies increase the attractiveness of rural and remote areas or will they reinforce the influence of urban ones? ICTs and Rural Development sets out to answer these questions. Field research conducted in Canada, France, Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States shows that rural development projects organised around ICTs have facilitated job creation as well as the emergence of a new environment favourable to the development of the community. Nonetheless, the success of such projects depends on a number of conditions. They are presented and analysed in this report.

    Abstract: How can we meet the needs of today without diminishing the capacity of future generations to meet theirs? This is the central question posed by "sustainable development". OECD countries committed themselves to sustainable development at the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio, yet - almost ten years later - progress accomplished remains partial and uneven. Drawing on analysis carried forward in response to a mandate from OECD Ministers in 1998, this report stresses the urgency to address some of the most pressing challenges for sustainable development. It reviews the conceptual foundations of sustainable development, its measurement, and the institutional reforms needed to make it operational. It then discusses how international trade and investment, as well as development co-operation, can contribute to sustainable development on a global basis, and reviews the experience of OECD countries in using market-based, regulatory and technology policies to reach sustainability goals in a cost-effective way. The report also provides an in-depth analysis of policies designed to address key threats to sustainability in the areas of climate change and natural resource management, as well as of those that respond to sustainability concerns at the sectoral and sub-national level. The common thrust of the report is that substantial opportunities exist to make economic growth, environmental protection, and social development mutually reinforcing.

Rapidly growing cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&As) and strategic alliances are distinctive features of globalisation in the current era. They have become common paths to internationalising business operations, research and markets, together with traditional forms of trade and investment. An overwhelming share of foreign direct investment (FDI) is now in the form of M&As rather than greenfield investment, as firms shelve earlier diversification and expansion strategies and focus on core competencies. Strategic alliances are also a powerful mechanism for industrial restructuring on a global basis. This book presents the latest trends and drivers of globalisation in major OECD countries and their implications for industrial performance and government policies. It analyses regional as well as sectoral trends, including in telecommunications, automobiles, steel, pharmaceuticals, airlines and financial services. Growing alliances for business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) electronic commerce, and globalisation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are assessed. A Statistical Annex presents data through 2000.

    Abstract: Governments are in a crisis of identity, some would say legitimacy, with election turnouts low in many OECD countries and a widespread feeling of disenchantment among citizens with government and the democratic process. Can governments do something to change this? Certainly, doing nothing is not an answer. What every country needs is more transparency, more consultation and more participation. This book is a unique source of comparative information on this challenging subject. It examines a wide range of country experiences, offers examples of good practice, highlights innovative approaches and identifies promising tools (including new information technologies). A set of ten guiding principles for engaging citizens in policy-making is proposed.

    Abstract: To better respond to a new set of concerns of the population and promote sustainable development, governments today actively seek a broad partnership with civil society and the private sector. Yet, it is at local and regional levels, closer to the problems and the individuals, that partnerships are most often formed. Partnerships are being established throughout OECD countries to tackle issues of economic development, employment, social cohesion and the quality of life. What all partnerships share is a common desire to improve governance -- how society collectively solves its problems and meets its needs. Through partnerships, civil society and its NGOs, enterprises and government at different levels work together to design area-based strategies, adapt policies to local conditions and take initiatives consistent with shared priorities. An ambitious mission, which raises the challenge of harmonising public accountability and participatory democracy. Local Partnerships for Better Governance presents the lessons learnt from the most recent experiences in seven countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy and the United States. This book proposes a strategy that governments can implement to improve governance through partnerships. Applying this strategy will enforce local capacities in a globalising economy, and contribute to reconcile economic competitiveness, social cohesion and environmental progress.

    Abstract: Learning is an essential basis for progress in the 'knowledge society'; it is critical for economic growth and social welfare. OECD Member countries have committed themselves to making lifelong learning a reality for all. But the resources required to meet that goal are potentially large and countries differ in their capacity to generate them. Can OECD Member countries rise to this challenge? This report seeks to provide some answers by identifying and examining the economic and financial issues that arise in implementing the goal, and the strategies that the public and private sectors are pursuing to achieve it. It deals with issues such as individual learning accounts, recognition of non-formal learning, and measures to raise rates of return to lifelong learning. The report is intended to provide a basis for continued in-depth discussion by public authorities and the social partners. It aims to inspire future actions that ensure that lifelong learning serves as a sustainable and equitable strategy for human development.

    Abstract: Large stocks of depleted uranium have arisen as a result of enrichment operations, especially in the United States and the Russian Federation. Countries with depleted uranium stocks are interested in assessing strategies for the use and management of depleted uranium. The choice of strategy depends on several factors, including government and business policy, alternative uses available, the economic value of the material, regulatory aspects and disposal options, and international market developments in the nuclear fuel cycle. This report presents the results of a depleted uranium study conducted by an expert group organised jointly by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the International Atomic Energy Agency. It contains information on current inventories of depleted uranium, potential future arisings, long-term management alternatives, peaceful use options and country programmes. In addition, it explores ideas for international collaboration and identifies key issues for governments and policy makers to consider.

    Keywords: Finance and Investment ; Taxation
    Abstract: This report examines the currently highly topical issue of corporate tax incentives for foreign direct investment (FDI). The ability to offer an internationally competitive tax system is increasingly seen today as a determinative factor influencing FDI. With corporate income tax identified as the component that impacts most directly on multinational companies, much of the pressure for lowering host country tax burdens to attract capital is focused upon this tax. At the same time, corporate taxation plays an important withholding function, raising revenues on domestic-source income that might otherwise escape the tax net. The desire to tax this income while not discouraging foreign investors raises critical questions concerning the sensitivity of FDI to taxation and the appropriate setting of various tax provisions that determine the host country tax burden and influence investment and financing behaviour. This report considers various corporate tax measures to encourage FDI and a range of issues relevant to assessing their use. Given the central question of how much additional investment can be expected from tax relief and at what cost, the report summarises recent empirical findings which show increasing sensitivity of FDI to host country tax burdens, consistent with trends towards increasing globalisation of production. Other findings are considered which highlight tax-planning opportunities created by certain approaches, leading to unintended revenue leakage. The report emphasises the need to assess possible host and home country tax interactions which can influence tax incentive results, and more generally the need to look beyond what conventional economic analysis might suggest. While the report is intended primarily as a guide for policy makers in emerging market economies, it may serve as a reference document to tax policy analysts more generally

    Abstract: The Guidelines for Consumer Protection in the Context of Electronic Commerce are designed to help ensure that consumers are no less protected when shopping on line than they are when they buy from their local store or order from a catalogue. By setting out the core characteristics of effective consumer protection for online business-to-consumer transactions, the Guidelines are intended to help eliminate some of the uncertainties that both consumers and businesses encounter when buying and selling on line. The Guidelines reflect existing legal protections available to consumers in more traditional forms of commerce. Their aim is to encourage: - fair business, advertising and marketing practices; - clear information about an online business’s identity, the goods or services it offers and the terms and conditions of any transaction; - a transparent process for the confirmation of transactions; - secure payment mechanisms; - fair, timely and affordable dispute resolution and redress; - privacy protection; and - consumer and business education.

    Abstract: OECD's 2001 review of Slovenia's agricultural policies. It finds that successful macroeconomic recovery and major progress towards international integration marked Slovenia’s first decade of independence. This should have a positive impact on the domestic agro-food sector, prompting the shift of human and financial resources into more competitive areas and driving down production costs. With EU membership fast approaching and commitments to WTO and CEFTA to be upheld, Slovenia needs to limit price-distorting policies in the agro-food sector and to focus on structural adjustment, especially to reduce farm fragmentation, enlarge the commercially viable farm sector, and restructure and modernise the food industry. Given the high importance of rural areas in Slovenia, an effective rural diversification strategy targeted to generate off-farm incomes for rural people is vital to support the progress towards a more market-oriented agriculture. The Review analyses developments since Slovenia gained independence in 1991. It evaluates key structural issues, examines emerging policy developments and provides detailed estimates of support to agriculture, using the OECD’s Producer and Consumer Support Estimates (PSEs/CSEs). For those involved in central and eastern European agriculture and agro-food policies, markets and trade, the Review offers unique information and analysis. Policy makers, businesses and researchers will find it an indispensable reference for years to come.

    Abstract: Evaluation is a key tool in improving the quality and effectiveness of development co-operation. The Development Assistance Committee (DAC) Working Party in Aid Evaluation is the only international forum where bilateral and multilateral evaluation experts meet regularly. Its Members meet to improve evaluation practice and to learn lessons from development co-operation activities and experiences. A series "Evaluation and Aid Effectiveness" was launched to share selected pieces of work with a broader public. This study acknowledges the considerable progress made in terms of the growing mainstreaming of environmental issues and recognises the need for additional efforts in the context of widespread institutional capacity development. As such, this report shall be considered as a complement to the Committee's earlier publications and guidelines on CDE. These should guide both programme-level and specific project-level CDE assessments and serve as a source of general information for policy-makers as well as practitioners in donor agencies and developing countries. The print version of the above report is available free of charge from the Development Co-operation Directorate; please send an email to dac.contactoecd.org to get a copy.

    Abstract: In accordance with decisions made by the FDI, the OECD has initiated surveys on fiscal decentralisation for the purpose of providing international comparisons on the design of fiscal systems across levels of government. The FDI is a joint initiative of the OECD, the World Bank, USAID, the Council of Europe, The Open Society Institute, UNDP and OECD Member countries to assist transition economies in Central and Eastern Europe in carrying out intergovernmental reforms. In 2000 the surveys took place in six countries: three OECD Member countries, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland, and the three Baltic States, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. In "Fiscal Design Surveys across Levels of Government" OECD Tax Policy Studies, no 7, 2001, the overall concept of the surveys and the comparative results for the six countries are brought. The full country reports are available through the OECD iLibrary, www.OECD-iLibrary.org, and the internet site of the OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration, www.oecd.org/daf/fa

    Abstract: Economic integration in West Africa is a major political objective for all the States in the region and is supported by the main economic players in the region. The weight of Nigeria -- which accounts for 50% of the regional economy -- the many constraints to formal trade, linguistic barriers, these all raise as many hopes as fears among the economic players in neighbouring countries with respect to their future relations with this powerful neighbour. Prospects for Trade between Nigeria and its Neighbours, a study undertaken by the Laboratoire d’Analyse Regional et d’Expertise Sociale (LARES) in Cotonou, commissioned by the Club du Sahel, examines the issues. It describes the still largely informal trade in the region, analysing constraints to its growth and some possible future developments. Presented as a series of concise, well documented "fact sheets", this study will be of interest to those in both public and private spheres who believe that regional trade development is a necessary response to globalisation. Prospects for Trade between Nigeria and its Neighbours has formed the basis of a workshop organised by the Club du Sahel and the West African Enterprise Network for English and French entrepreneurs in December 2000 in Cotonou, Benin.

    Abstract: Managing Public Expenditure presents a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of all aspects of public expenditure management from the preparation of the budget to the execution, control and audit stages. The book will be of general interest but is focused particularly on the needs of countries in transition, especially those in Central and Eastern Europe that seek to become members of the European Union. The book provides practical, operational information and guidance on all areas of public expenditure management, e.g. legal and institutional frameworks, preparation of the budget, implementation, cash management, performance management, accounting, financial information and reporting systems, internal control and internal audit, and external audit. Each part of the book ends with key points and directions for reform. The detailed questionnaire will help practitioners to identify the strong and weak elements in their budget systems so that they can take necessary remedial action. Managing Public Expenditure ends with a comprehensive glossary, bibliography and index. Richard Allen is an economist and spent most of his career at HM Treasury (the British Ministry of Finance), working mainly in the areas of fiscal policy, EU affairs, public expenditure management and international finance. He has also served as a diplomat in Washington DC and as a board member of the European Investment Bank.

    Keywords: Governance ; Korea, Republic of
    Abstract: A la fin de 1997, la Corée a subi l’une des crises économiques les plus graves qu’ait jamais vécue un pays de l’OCDE. Un ambitieux programme de réformes réglementaires, financières et structurelles (l’un des efforts de réforme de la réglementation les plus porteurs entrepris par un pays Membre de l’OCDE) a contribué de façon décisive à la vigueur de la reprise économique en 1999 et 2000. Ce programme a non seulement permis de stabiliser la crise, mais il a aussi contribué à rétablir les conditions d’une croissance durable. L'expérience de la Corée peut être utile aux autres pays qui cherchent à favoriser une croissance tirée par le marché. Au moyen de ces réformes, la Corée passe aujourd’hui d'un modèle de développement économique interventionniste et dirigiste à un modèle ouvert, fondé sur le libre jeu des mécanismes de marché et sur des valeurs telles que le choix du consommateur, la démocratie et l’état de droit. Cependant, la tâche est loin d’être achevée. Le système de l’intervention étatique n’est qu’en partie réformé, et de nombreux problèmes importants restent à traiter. Pour plusieurs années encore, la pérennité de la croissance nationale restera tributaire de la continuité des progrès de la réforme de la réglementation. La Corée, comme plusieurs pays Membres, a demandé à l'OCDE de procéder à un examen général de ses pratiques réglementaires nationales et de ses réformes internes de la réglementation. Cet ouvrage présente une évaluation approfondie de la réforme de la réglementation dans des domaines cadres comme la qualité du secteur public, la politique de la concurrence et sa mise en œuvre et l’ouverture des marchés. Il comprend aussi des chapitres sectoriels, portant par exemple sur l’électricité et sur les télécommunications, ainsi qu’une évaluation du contexte macroéconomique de la réforme. Les politiques recommandées offrent un plan d'action équilibré à court et à long terme, fondé sur les meilleures pratiques réglementaires à l’échelon international. Dans la même série : La réforme de la réglementation au Japon La réforme de la réglementation aux Pays-Bas La réforme de la réglementation au Mexique La réforme de la réglementation aux États-Unis La réforme de la réglementation en Hongrie La réforme de la réglementation en Espagne La réforme de la réglementation au Danemark L’analyse générale sur laquelle se fondent les examens par pays est exposée dans le Rapport de l’OCDE sur la réforme de la réglementation - Synthèse, et le document d’appui en deux volumes Rapport de l’OCDE sur la réforme de la réglementation - Études sectorielles - Études thématiques, publiés en 1997.

    Abstract: Municipal waste has increased 22 % per capita from 1980 to 1997. At the same time, the difficulty of siting new waste disposal facilities has increased. While major progress has been made to lessen the per capita generation of air and water pollution over the past decades, waste generation is still on the rise. Faced with the increase of waste, many governments have reviewed available policy options and concluded that placing the responsibility for the post-consumer phase of certain goods on producers could provide a means to relieve certain environmental pressures, arising from post-consumer waste. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach under which producers accept significant responsibility - financial and/or physical - for the treatment or disposal of post-consumer products. Assigning such responsibility could provide incentives to prevent wastes at the source, promote product design for the environment and support the achievement of public recycling and materials management goals. Within the OECD the trend is towards the extension of EPR to new products, product groups and waste streams such as electrical appliances and electronics. This guidance manual represents one means to inform national governments about the potential benefits and costs associated with EPR.

    Abstract: La réforme des activités d'enseignement et de formation ainsi que la valorisation des ressources humaines font partie intégrante de la transition vers la démocratie et l'économie de marché. L'Estonie a réalisé des progrès dans tous ces domaines depuis le début des réformes en 1990. Tout le problème pour le ministère de l'Education a été de promouvoir et de favoriser des réformes propres à répondre aux besoins d’une économie et d’une société nouvelles ainsi qu'aux intérêts de tous les jeunes et adultes, malgré la pénurie de ressources financières et humaines. Cet ouvrage donne un aperçu général des questions régionales, fait l'historique du système éducatif en Estonie et décrit l'évolution de l'éducation dans ce pays depuis les changements politiques. Il présente ensuite une analyse du système éducatif tout entier et signale les principales orientations à suivre pour renforcer les réformes compte tenu des difficultés auxquelles ont dû faire face les décideurs, les collectivités, les entreprises, les éducateurs, les parents et les élèves dans un environnement en pleine mutation. En conclusion, il comprend une série de recommandations essentielles qui concernent les objectifs de l'éducation, l'efficacité des apprentissages, les débouchés et les programmes d'enseignement, la gestion et la gouvernance dans un souci de flexibilité, d'adaptabilité et d'évolution, et, enfin, les ressources et le financement. Cet examen sera d'une très grande utilité aux spécialistes estoniens ainsi qu'à leurs homologues internationaux.

    Abstract: As we move into the 21st century, the turbulent transformation of economy and society looks set to continue. Growing integration of markets, radical new technologies, the increasing knowledge intensity of human activity, all point to the emergence of an immensely complex world. But how will it be managed? And by whom? What forms of organisation and decision-making will be required at local, national and global levels to meet the challenges of the next decades? One thing seems certain: old forms of governance -- in the public sector, corporations and civil society -- are becoming increasingly ineffective. New forms of governance will be needed over the next few decades which will involve a much broader range of active players. Traditional hierarchical organisations and top-down control will give way more and more to a wider diffusion of responsibility and decision-making that builds on the talents for innovation and creativity of individuals and groups. This book explores some of the opportunities and risks -- economic, social and technological -- that decision-makers will have to address in the coming years, and outlines what needs to be done to foster society 's capacity to manage its future more flexibly and with broader participation of its citizens.

    Abstract: The first OECD Conference on Women Entrepreneurs in SMEs in 1997 highlighted their contribution to innovation and job creation. Since that time, women’s entrepreneurship has been burgeoning. Women entrepreneurs constitute a growing share of SME owners, with higher than average start-up rates in several OECD Member and non-member countries. Eliminating obstacles to the creation and development of firms by women and creating a level playing field for women business owners is vital for a thriving entrepreneurial sector and important for national growth strategies. Women business owners are creating new niches for entrepreneurial activity and have the potential to become key players in the new, knowledge-based economy. However, they must adapt to profound changes in the way small enterprises do business, both locally and at the global level. The 2000 Conference aimed at finding ways to help women-owned SMEs seize the opportunities offered by globalisation, ICTs, changes in firm organisation, the increasing importance of the service sector, and other current developments. Cette publication est tirée de la conférence de l'OCDE sur « Les femmes entrepreneurs à la tête de PME : pour une participation dynamique à la mondialisation et à l'économie fondée sur le savoir ». Les lecteurs de langue française y trouveront une synthèse en français des présentations, discussions et conclusions de la conférence.

    Keywords: Agriculture and Food ; Slovenia
    Abstract: Les dix premières années d'indépendance de la Slovénie ont été marquées par un réel redressement économique et une progression notable de son intégration internationale. Le secteur agro-alimentaire national devrait logiquement en bénéficier, ce qui accélèrerait le transfert de ressources humaines et financières vers des domaines plus compétitifs et contribuerait à faire baisser les coûts de production. Avec la perspective de son adhésion prochaine à l'UE et compte tenu de ses engagements auprès de l'OMC et de l'ALEEC (qu'elle devra tenir), la Slovénie doit impérativement limiter les mesures ayant pour conséquence de fausser les prix dans le secteur agro-alimentaire, et privilégier l'ajustement structurel, en particulier en réduisant le morcellement des exploitations, en étendant le secteur agricole commercialement viable, et en restructurant et modernisant l'industrie alimentaire. Étant donné l'importance considérable des zones rurales en Slovénie, il est essentiel d'adopter une stratégie efficace de diversification capable de générer des revenus non agricoles pour les populations rurales, afin de soutenir le processus de transition vers une agriculture davantage fondée sur les mécanismes du marché. Cette étude analyse les évolutions qu'a connues la Slovénie depuis son accession à l'indépendance en 1991. Elle évalue les principaux problèmes structurels, examine les tendances qui se dessinent au niveau de l'action des pouvoirs publics et fournit des estimations détaillées du soutien à l'agriculture en utilisant les indicateurs mis au point par l'OCDE (ESP et ESC). Cet ouvrage offre des informations et une analyse précieuses pour tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux politiques, aux marchés et aux échanges agricoles et agro-alimentaires des pays d'Europe centrale et orientale. Il s'imposera par ailleurs comme une référence indispensable pour les décideurs, les chefs d'entreprise et les chercheurs. Examens des politiques agricoles déjà parus : Bulgarie (2000) Roumanie (2000) Fédération de Russie (1998) République slovaque (1997) Estonie (1996) Lettonie (1996) Lituanie (1996) République tchèque (1995) Pologne (1995) Hongrie (1994) Cette publication s'inscrit dans le cadre de la coopération engagée par l'OCDE avec les économies non membres.

    Abstract: This publication focuses on the role of university museums, their organisation, management, governance and finance. Most university museum collections have been assembled for the purposes of teaching and research rather than for public display. Whether small, of local importance or large, with great public appeal, they are all defined by their relationship to their university and form a distinctive sector in the museum community. The papers gathered in this book take this distinctiveness into consideration. They examine the common issues and problems that university museums are facing, among which the most important ones are funding and collection management. Many examples of good and imaginative practice are presented as regards fundraising, widening public access, integrating information resources, marketing, management and international collaboration. The book has been edited by Melanie Kelly, administrator at the International Center for Higher Education, School of Management, University of Bath.

    Abstract: L’examen territorial de la région de Teruel fait partie d’un vaste programme d’examens territoriaux réalisés à l’échelle nationale et régionale par le Comité des politiques de développement territorial de l’OCDE. Cette série d'examens à pour objectif général de donner aux pouvoirs publics des conseils pratiques sur les mesures à prendre. En venant compléter l’analyse statistique et l’analyse comparative des méthodes et des instruments disponibles, ces examens régionaux jouent un rôle fondamental. L’étude de certains types de pays et de régions (zones urbaines, intermédiaires, rurales) offre des exemples concrets de défis à relever et de réponses possibles. La province de Teruel est une région rurale reculée du nord-est de l’Espagne, partie du pays qui est elle-même d’un grand dynamisme. Elle constitue un exemple typique, voire extrême, de région reculée à faible densité de population, dont la base économique pose de graves problèmes et qui ne peut guère compter que sur ses propres atouts pour son développement économique. Cet ouvrage montre surtout que les importantes ressources naturelles et culturelles de la région peuvent contribuer de manière essentielle à une stratégie de développement intégré résolument tournée vers l’avenir.

    Abstract: In an era of globalisation, decentralisation, and knowledge-based economies, governments are having to reshape public sector leadership to cope with new challenges. This environment requires new roles for public sector leaders including change agents, promoters of enhanced performance, co-ordinators of government policies, and keepers of public service values. Many governments of OECD Member countries are developing new public sector leadership models. This is the first report to examine key leadership issues across OECD Member countries, including the strategies and practices governments are adopting, and the lessons from country experiences so far.

    Abstract: The importance of biodiversity valuation is widely understood in academia and is increasingly used in policy making and other fora. For example, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), through the Conference of the Parties (COP), recognises that "economic valuation of biodiversity and biological resources is an important tool for well-targeted and calibrated economic incentive measures". Further, it encourages the Parties to "take into account economic, social, cultural and ethical valuation in the development of relevant incentive measures" (CBD COP Decision IV/10). Biodiversity valuation should be an integral part of environmental economic policy, providing information to policy makers in their quest to identify priorities and equate trade-offs. As part of its effort to support governments in using valuation methods to assess the value of biological diversity, the OECD commissioned this series of case studies. They cover the state of the art on economic valuation and on the interface between economic and ecological valuation.

    Abstract: This landmark study of the material well-being of older people in nine OECD countries -- Canada, Finland, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States -- uses a wealth of new data to shed light on the challenges that face policy-makers as they anticipate the coming retirement of the baby-boom generation. The findings are often surprising. In all the countries surveyed, policies have been fundamentally successful: older people at all income levels tend to maintain or even increase their material standards of living once they stop working. This happens despite large differences in approaches to public policy, including the size of public pensions. The systems that provide resources to older people are considerably more complex than is usually taken into account in policy-making, and the effects of policy, while large, are less direct than often thought. Demography and changing labour market patterns make reforms to these systems imperative. The challenge is to make needed changes without undermining past success. This is difficult, but entirely possible; the payoffs from relatively small changes in the balance between work and retirement could be particularly large. The study examines the many diverse ways in which the nine countries are tackling this challenge and the lessons that have been learned from their experiences. It provides invaluable evidence for policy-makers, researchers and citizens concerned about the challenges posed for societies by ageing populations.

    Abstract: Le développement économique italien a été caractérisé par des disparités régionales marquées, en particulier entre le Centre-Nord et le Sud. Aujourd’hui, l’Italie présente l’un des dualismes géographiques les plus considérables parmi les pays Membres de l’OCDE. Dans les régions du Sud, malgré d’importants signes de dynamisme ces dernières années, le taux de chômage est toujours quatre fois plus élevé qu’au Centre-Nord. La dotation en infrastructures du Sud reste bien inférieure à la moyenne nationale et le crime organisé constitue encore un obstacle majeur à l’investissement et au développement endogène. Le pays a récemment initié de pertinentes et prometteuses améliorations de sa gouvernance territoriale destinées à créer un cadre favorable au développement des économies locales situées dans des zones déprimées. De nouveaux instruments ont été développés pour le Mezzogiorno (sud de l’Italie), qui parient sur un processus impliquant tous les acteurs et tous les niveaux de gouvernement dans les phases stratégiques de conception, de mise en œuvre et d’évaluation des politiques territoriales. L’examen décrit ces innovations politiques et identifie les principaux défis auxquels le pays devra faire face pour atteindre un développement territorial plus équilibré et mettre en marche un nouveau processus de convergence. L’Examen territorial de l’Italie est intégré dans un programme plus large d’examens territoriaux nationaux et régionaux entrepris par le Comité des Politiques de Développement Territorial de l’OCDE. L’objectif de la série d’examens territoriaux est de fournir des conseils de politique pratiques aux gouvernements.

    Abstract: La société coréenne de l’après-guerre a été marquée par de profonds changements et une croissance économique rapide. Sa population a triplé, ce qui a engendré d’importantes transformations territoriales. Malgré les efforts déployés pour parvenir à une croissance régionale équilibrée, la Corée se distingue toujours par une polarisation géographique importante. La région de la capitale a un poids économique considérable : elle abrite plus de 45 % de la population nationale et produit près de la moitié de son PIB. Au cours des dix dernières années, les responsables des politiques publiques ont développé une perspective spatiale globale. Ils ont mis en place des politiques visant à mieux gérer l’utilisation des sols, les infrastructures ainsi que les problèmes des régions défavorisées, et ils ont profondément restructuré la gouvernance territoriale. Toutefois, une intervention plus poussée permettrait d’exploiter pleinement les efforts en cours. La coordination intersectorielle est faible et il semble qu’une meilleure adéquation entre la vision spatiale globale et le soutien financier aux projets publics spécifiques s’impose. La gouvernance territoriale demeure centralisée, de sorte que les limites de l’autonomie locale risquent de constituer un obstacle à l’innovation régionale orientée vers une croissance économique durable. L’accent mis sur les grandes entreprises risque d’empêcher la valorisation de la contribution considérable des PME au développement régional. L’Examen territorial de la Corée s’inscrit dans un programme plus vaste d’Examens territoriaux, aux niveaux national et régional, menés par le Comité des Politiques de Développement Territorial de l’OCDE. L’objectif général des Examens territoriaux est de fournir des recommandations pratiques aux gouvernements.

    Abstract: Hydrogen has the potential to play an important role as a sustainable and environmentally acceptable energy source in the 21st century. However, hydrogen does not exist as a gas on earth and thus has to be produced from, for example, water or natural gas by different separation techniques. One way to do so would be to use nuclear-produced energy or heat in this separation process. The present publication gives an overview of the advancements in the scientific and technological fields related to the nuclear production of hydrogen.

    Abstract: Enormous investments are being made in computers and Internet connectivity for schools. The aim is to provide high-quality learning and teaching and equip young people for the knowledge society. But how are the benefits of this educational investment to be realised? It calls for much more than installing the hardware, and is not simply a matter of using ICT to do traditional things in different ways. Schools have to learn to change and to change to new ways of learning. There is an urgent need for quality software and digital materials for use in schools. Teachers - and students - must become discerning and knowledgeable ICT users. The school environment has to be fully supportive of ICT, making available expert assistance and advice to the teacher in this rapidly-changing field. New forms of curriculum and assessment are called for, new ways of organising schools, if the dramatic educational potential of ICT is to be delivered and realised. Such a demanding "learning to change" agenda is the subject of this international report. It is illuminated by the views of individual students, who used ICT enthusiastically in their own learning, and shared their experiences in an OECD international network. The report looks at the vast educational possibilities arising from the Internet, bringing together the school, the home and the wider community. It examines how ICT, which is the subject of teacher professional development, can largely be the means for its delivery. There are numerous examples of promising practice and principles for the future.

    Abstract: It has been widely recognised among researchers that speciation data are essential for proper and reliable modelling of radionuclide behaviour, which is studied inter alia in the context of radioactive waste management. Participants at the OECD/NEA workshop on "Evaluation of Speciation Technology" reviewed the various techniques used to identify different species of actinide and fission product elements present in nuclear waste and nuclear reprocessing streams. The review takes into account the advantages, disadvantages and limitations of the various methods in relation to their field of application. Recommendations for future R&D are also provided. These proceedings will primarily be of interest to chemists specialised in separation techniques and radioactive waste management experts.

    Abstract: This study draws on recent tax policy experience in a selection of OECD countries to provide an analysis of important current tax policy issues in a number of areas: corporate income tax; personal income tax and social security contributions; consumption tax; property and wealth taxes; devolving expenditure and taxing power; tax administration and enforcement. Taxation is inevitable in modern economies to finance public spending, which is aimed at meeting fundamental economic and social objectives. However, efficiency losses associated with taxation need to be taken into account when the cost and benefits of public expenditure to be funded are being assessed. The public perception of the fairness of tax systems, the practical enforceability of tax rules and the cost arising from compliance are other important considerations. Against this backdrop, the OECD has reviewed in the past two years the tax systems of a number of Member countries in its periodical Economic Surveys. The analysis and policy recommendations emerging from these reviews may provide some useful lessons for other OECD countries, and these are pulled together in this paper.

    Abstract: Au cours des dernières années, le transport intercontinental a connu une véritable révolution : l’expansion considérable de la conteneurisation, le développement des mégatransporteurs, des navires porte-conteneurs toujours plus gros et la massification des flux en sont autant de signes tangibles. Ces changements se sont traduits par un abaissement considérable des coûts du transport maritime qui a rendu les pays lointains beaucoup plus accessibles. Le transport terrestre est donc souvent devenu le maillon le plus onéreux de la chaîne de transport en trafic international, d'où la pression croissante des armateurs pour contrôler ce secteur d'activité. Sur terre, la route reste dominante, mais face à la congestion des infrastructures, le rail et la voie d’eau peuvent jouer un rôle. Dans quelles conditions ces deux derniers modes peuvent-ils prendre une part plus importante dans les transports terrestres ? Il faut savoir que faute d'un réseau spécifiquement dédié au fret, le rail ne peut pas vraiment être compétitif tandis que la navigation fluviale ne pourra jouer un rôle significatif que si elle parvient à diminuer ses coûts de transbordement. Une plus grande concurrence au sein de ces deux modes de transport ne pourrait-elle engendrer des gains de productivité et de qualité de service ? La Table Ronde a permis d'aborder l’ensemble des questions relatives à la compétitivité des modes de transport terrestre en dégageant des lignes directrices pour l’action des pouvoirs publics en matière de desserte des ports maritimes.

Le principe de proximité pour le traitement des déchets, intégré dans cette réglementation au nom de la protection de l'environnement, ne doit-il pas être remis en cause, ce principe de proximité empêchant une massification des flux qui serait favorable aux modes de transport les plus écologiques ? Le bilan environnemental des transports de déchets ne saurait être établi que dans le cadre d'une approche globale intégrant l'ensemble des filières de traitement de ces déchets. Il faut en effet se méfier des fausses bonnes idées, telles que "le transport de déchets doit être limité" ou " le recyclage est la meilleure solution". La suppression des décharges ou le retraitement pourraient accroître sensiblement les transports de déchets. La Table Ronde reprend ces points en examinant successivement, à partir de l'expérience des différents pays, les évolutions du secteur des transports de déchets et les problèmes statistiques rencontrés pour les appréhender, la réglementation applicable à ces transports et leur bilan environnemental, en insistant tout particulièrement sur les difficultés engendrées par la répartition modale actuelle de ces transports.

    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice pour l’étude de la toxicité sur le développement est conçue pour fournir des informations générales sur les effets de l'exposition prénatale sur la femelle gravide et sur l'organisme en développement. La substance d’essai est normalement administrée aux femelles gravides au moins de la nidation jusqu'à la veille du sacrifice, lequel qui est programmé à une date aussi proche que possible du jour de la mise bas. Cette Ligne directrice utilise des rongeurs (de préférence le rat) et non-rongeurs (le lapin de préférence). Chaque groupe d’essai et de contrôle doit contenir un nombre suffisant de femelles pour avoir approximativement 20 animaux avec des points d'implantation à l'autopsie. Trois concentrations, au moins, doivent être employées. La substance d'essai ou le véhicule est habituellement administré oralement par intubation. Un essai limite peut être effectué si aucun effet n’est attendu à une dose de 1000mg/kg poids corporel/j. Les résultats de l’étude comportent des mesures (poids) et des observations cliniques quotidiennes. Peu de temps avant la césarienne, les femelles sont tuées (un jour avant la mise bas attendue), le contenu de l’utérus est examiné, et le tissu mou et les changements squelettiques des fœtus sont évalués. Un certain nombre de mesures liées aux fonctions endocriniennes chez les femelles et chez les foetus ont été ajoutées en 2018. Pour toute étude qui démontre une absence d’effets toxiques, une enquête postérieure pour établir l'absorption et la disponibilité biologique de la substance d'essai est envisagée.

    Abstract: Economic valuation is widely used in OECD countries as a way of assessing the (usually monetary) value of goods that have no markets. In the rural context, valuation methods are used to argue for or against projects and policy choices in areas as diverse as agricultural support policies, local economic development, land use and biodiversity assessment.This volume reviews a range of different valuation methodologies -- stated preferences, cost-benefit, revealed preferences, and others -- and looks at how these different approaches influence choices in rural policy. Its aim is to assess whether some set of international guidelines or standards could be used to reduce the subjectivity of the evidentiary information.

    Abstract: Achieving sustainable development goals at a global level will strongly depend on the rapid technological development and innovation, and the widespread diffusion and application, of cleaner technologies in non-OECD as well as OECD countries. But do the developing countries have the capacity and motivation to take advantage of cleaner technology options? What are their needs? And what are the barriers which must be addressed? Arresting the impending environmental imbalances and ecological instability and moving towards sustainable development call for establishing a new multilateral framework for co-operation in environmental science and technology.

    Abstract: La réforme des activités d'enseignement et de formation ainsi que la valorisation des ressources humaines font partie intégrante de la transition vers la démocratie et l'économie de marché. La Lettonie a réalisé des progrès dans tous ces domaines depuis le début des réformes en 1990. Tout le problème, pour le ministère de l'Education et de la Science, a été de promouvoir et de favoriser des réformes propres à répondre aux besoins d’une économie et d’une société nouvelles ainsi qu'aux intérêts de tous les jeunes et adultes, malgré la pénurie de ressources financières et humaines. Cet ouvrage donne un aperçu général des questions régionales, fait l'historique du système éducatif en Lettonie et décrit l'évolution de l'éducation dans ce pays depuis les changements politiques. Il présente ensuite une analyse du système éducatif tout entier et signale les principales orientations à suivre pour renforcer les réformes compte tenu des difficultés auxquelles ont dû faire face les décideurs, les collectivités, les entreprises, les éducateurs, les parents et les élèves dans un environnement en pleine mutation. En conclusion, il comprend une série de recommandations essentielles qui concernent les objectifs de l'éducation, l'efficacité des apprentissages, les débouchés et les programmes d'enseignement, la gestion et la gouvernance dans un souci de flexibilité, d'adaptabilité et d'évolution, et, enfin, les ressources et le financement. Cet examen sera d'une très grande utilité aux spécialistes lettons ainsi qu'à leurs homologues internationaux.

    Keywords: Urban, Rural and Regional Development ; Spain
    Abstract: Les Districts Centraux de Valence sont composés de 155 municipalités qui appartiennent à deux provinces différentes de la région de Valence ; ils sont spécialisés dans le textile, le jouet, et les services liés au tourisme. Jusqu'à présent ces activités ont été fortement compétitives en dépit de la petite taille des entreprises, de leur spécialisation dans ce qu’il est convenu d’appeler "les industries matures", de la taille relativement petite des villes où elles se concentrent et de l'absence d’infrastructures appropriées. Cependant, la mondialisation rend incertain l'avenir de cette zone. Au moment où les services aux entreprises contribuent de plus en plus au succès des industries de biens, les structures de petite taille qui caractérisent les Districts Centraux de Valence pourront-elles rester compétitives ? Et devraient-elles trouver de nouvelles formes de partenariats pour accroître leur capacité à investir ? L’objectif de cet examen territorial est de fournir des recommandations politiques pratiques sur la façon dont cette zone peut répondre à ces nouveaux défis en développant ses atouts potentiels. L’examen territorial des Districts centraux de Valence fait partie d'un programme plus vaste d’examens territoriaux, au niveaux national et régional, menés par le Comité des Politiques de Développement Territorial de l’OCDE. L’objectif général de ces séries est de fournir des recommandations pratiques aux gouvernements. Les examens régionaux portent sur trois types de régions (urbain, intermédiaire, rural). Ils contribuent à enrichir la base d'informations disponibles sur les défis auxquels sont confrontées ces régions et les solutions pour y faire face.

    Abstract: It is now widely recognised that a greater use of market based instruments is a key element of effective and economically efficient environmental policies, and an important framework condition for sustainable development. Hence, over the last decade, economic instruments have been playing a growing role in environmental policies of OECD countries. In this context, a distinctive feature is the increasing role of environmentally related taxes. All countries have introduced environmental taxes to a varying extent, and an increasing number of countries are implementing comprehensive green-tax reforms, while others are contemplating doing so. This report analyses current use of environmentally related taxes in OECD Member countries. Focus is given to their environmental effectiveness. The report identifies obstacles to a broader use of such taxes -- in particular the fear of loss of sectoral competitiveness -- and ways to overcome such problems.

    Keywords: Finance and Investment ; Lithuania
    Abstract: Depuis qu’elle a recouvré son indépendance, en 1990, la Lituanie a connu une transformation économique remarquable. Dès la fin de 2000, ce processus avait été grandement stimulé par un apport de quelque 2.3 milliards de dollars d’IDE en provenance des pays européens, des Etats-Unis et des pays voisins. L’IDE a contribué aux investissements nouveaux, aux fusions-acquisitions et à la privatisation des entreprises d’Etat. La mise en place de conditions propices à l’IDE a été un élément central de la stratégie économique de la Lituanie, et à l’heure actuelle il subsiste relativement peu de restrictions dans ce domaine. L’IDE a été également encouragé par la perspective de l’entrée de la Lituanie dans l’UE et par son adhésion à l’Organisation mondiale du commerce, le 31 mai 2001. Parmi les grands chantiers en cours, on peut citer l’achèvement rapide des privatisations, la poursuite de la libéralisation et l’ouverture à la concurrence étrangère. Une priorité absolue est accordée au règlement des problèmes d’application découlant de la refonte de l’ancien régime réglementaire. Le 26 juillet 2001, la Lituanie a été admise à adhérer à la Déclaration de l’OCDE sur l’investissement international et les entreprises multinationales. Cela contribuera sans aucun doute à consolider ses avancées et à développer ses relations économiques avec les pays de l’OCDE et les autres adhérents à la Déclaration.

    Abstract: Depuis qu’elle a recouvré son indépendance, en 1991, l’Estonie a connu une remarquable transformation économique. Fin 2000, elle avait reçu environ 2.65 milliards de dollars d’IDE en provenance des pays européens et des Etats-Unis, et investi quelque 443 millions de dollars dans les autres pays baltes. L’IDE a financé des investissements nouveaux, des fusions-acquisitions et la privatisation d’entreprises d’Etat. L’instauration de conditions propices à l’IDE et l’ouverture aux échanges sont les éléments clés de la stratégie économique de l’Estonie. L’Estonie a été incluse dans le premier cercle des pays candidats à l’entrée dans l’UE, et a adhéré à l’Organisation mondiale du commerce le 13 novembre 2001. La refonte de l’ancien régime et la privatisation sont pratiquement achevées, et les autorités s’efforcent tout particulièrement de réduire la bureaucratie et d’améliorer encore la réglementation. Il subsiste très peu de restrictions à l’encontre de l’IDE. L’Estonie doit maintenant relever le défi de la concurrence et rattraper les nations plus prospères. Le 26 juillet 2001, l’Estonie a été admise à adhérer à la Déclaration de l’OCDE sur l’investissement international et les entreprises multinationales. Cela contribuera sans aucun doute à consolider les avancées récentes de l’Estonie et à développer encore ses relations économiques avec les pays de l’OCDE et les autres adhérents à la Déclaration.

    Abstract: In OECD countries, metropolitan areas often enjoy above-average rates of growth; they compete for foreign direct investment, have a leading position in the knowledge-based economy, and attract a disproportionately large share of immigrants. Yet they also are burdened with many problems including congestion, and the renewal of infrastructure, the spread of distressed urban areas. Better strategies for the development of metropolitan areas are vital if their rate of economic growth is to remain strong, but the governance structures currently in place are often outdated and ill-adapted to the tasks they face, especially given the sprawl of many metropolitan cities across many jurisdictions.Drawing on the lessons from successful and unsuccessful attempts at the reform of metropolitan governance, this book identifies ways by which central and metropolitan governments can work better to optimise the potential of each urban region.

    Abstract: GEOTRAP is the OECD/NEA Project on Radionuclide Migration in Geologic, Heterogeneous Media carried out in the context of site evaluation and safety assessment of deep repository systems for long-lived radioactive waste.Performance assessment of proposed waste disposal sites requires models of radionuclide transport through the geosphere. To be used in repository planning and development, these models must have the confidence of both national waste management programmes and the wider scientific community. The fourth GEOTRAP workshop, "Confidence in Models of Radionuclide Transport for Site-specific Performance Assessment" held in June 1999, addressed the issue of technical confidence building and provided an overview of current developments in this field. Proposed approaches to confidence building and approaches that have already proven successful were presented and discussed. In addition to the material presented during the workshop, this publication includes a technical synthesis reflecting the discussions that took place as well as the conclusions and recommendations made, notably during the working group sessions.

    Abstract: A general consensus has been reached among technical experts that high-level radioactive waste can safely be disposed of in deep geological repositories. Safety studies are carried out to evaluate the overall capacity of a particular disposal site to confine waste and minimise radioactive releases. Since the principal way in which radioactive elements might eventually reach the biosphere is by transport of dissolved radionuclides in groundwater, the safety study calculations must be able to estimate their rate of transfer through each of the barriers surrounding the repository. It is well known that, for many radioelements, sorption reactions can lead to a reduction of the amount of radionuclides present in the solution phase. How best to take radionuclide sorption reactions into account in repository performance assessment models is the subject of this book.

    Abstract: In underground repositories for radioactive waste, significant quantities of gases may be generated as a result of several processes. The potential impact of gas generation, accumulation and migration on the performances of the various barriers and, ultimately, on the long-term safety of a repository, should therefore be assessed in the development of safety cases for underground repositories. It was in this context that the EC and the NEA organised a workshop on "Gas Generation, Accumulation and Migration in Underground Repository Systems for Radioactive Waste: Safety-relevant Issues" in Reims, France on 26-28 June 2000. This book includes the texts of the invited presentations, the reports of the deliberations held in the five working groups, as well as the main conclusions of the workshop.

    Abstract: Evaluation is a key tool in improving the quality and effectiveness of development co-operation. The Development Assistance Committee (DAC) Working Party in Aid Evaluation is the only international forum where bilateral and multilateral evaluation experts meet regularly. Its Members meet to improve evaluation practice and to learn lessons from development co-operation activities and experiences. A series "Evaluation and Aid Effectiveness" was launched to share selected pieces of work with a broader public. This Guidance is aimed at those involved in the commissioning, design and management of evaluations of humanitarian assistance programmes principally within donor organisations but is also likely to be of use to UN agencies, NGOs and other organisations involved in the provision of humanitarian assistance. It is not intended as an exhaustive guide as specialised texts are available, but to complement the existing DAC Principles on Aid Evaluation by highlighting those areas which require special attention, the nature of the activities undertaken and the multi-actor, highly interconnected system by which the international community provides humanitarian assistance. The print version of the above report is available free of charge from the Development Co-operation Directorate; please send an email to dac.contactoecd.org to get a copy.

    Abstract: Alors que la déréglementation est largement à l’oeuvre dans le secteur des transports, les services réguliers de lignes d'autocars demeurent très réglementés. Ces services apparaissent en effet aux yeux des pouvoirs publics comme un concurrent potentiel des chemins de fer. Pourtant, dans les pays où une déréglementation des services d'autocars a été tentée, le bilan est incontestablement positif (sauf pour les transports locaux à courte distance).La Table Ronde a cherché à faire le point sur les services réguliers interurbains par autocars à partir d’exemples de pays qui ont suivi des approches originales. Cette publication permet de voir ce type d'activité sous un jour entièrement nouveau. Il en ressort notamment que le transport de lignes par autocars constitue un marché spécifique pour une clientèle qui ne dispose pas de moyens de transport alternatifs. Ouvrir ce marché bénéficierait aux populations les plus défavorisées. Mais ce n’est pas la seule leçon de cette Table Ronde.

    Abstract: Cette publication fait partie d’une série d’études de politique fiscale réalisées par la Division des affaires fiscales de l’OCDE. Elle examine la difficile question de l’imposition des bénéfices dans le secteur de l’assurance vie et de l’assurance dommages. Dans le cas particulier de l’assurance vie, les pays de l’OCDE ont utilisé diverses méthodes pour s’efforcer d’imposer les revenus générés par les compagnies d’assurance. Cette étude analyse les problèmes politiques et techniques qui se posent lors de la détermination d’un mode d’imposition efficace des bénéfices. Les auteurs exposent tout d’abord les approches d’ensemble adoptées par les pays de l’OCDE dans ce domaine. Leur analyse met en lumière la vaste expérience pratique qu’ont acquise ces pays lors de l’élaboration du régime fiscal de leur secteur des assurances. Ils traitent ensuite des principales questions de fond auxquelles doivent faire face les décideurs et procèdent à une analyse critique des différents problèmes techniques que pose le passage de la théorie à la pratique.

    Abstract: In the face of challenges and opportunities posed by globalisation, rapidly evolving technologies, changing demographics, rising citizen expectations, and competition from the private sector, governments need to continue to explore and exploit new ways of working. This book (based on the proceedings of the OECD Symposium "Government of the Future: Getting from Here to There") looks at the way public administrations have been reformed over the last two decades and draws lessons for a new generation of reform.

    Abstract: The term multifunctionality is increasingly used, but is prone to different interpretations concerning its definition, its utility and its implications for policy at domestic and international level. The OECD undertook this analysis to clarify the concept of multifunctionality and to try to establish a common analytical framework and terminology. Examining production, externality and public good aspects of multifunctionality, the analysis contained in this report leads to a series of questions, the answers to which determine if and when policy intervention is warranted and what the nature of that intervention should be. The framework encompasses both negative and positive externalities of agriculture. The first question relates to the degree of jointness in production between the multiple outputs. The second question identifies the circumstances in which market failure arises. A third question leads to an investigation of the public good characteristics of the outputs in question and helps to define the optimal type of intervention. These may range from market creation, to the imposition of user fees, the formation of clubs or public provision financed at local, regional or national level. The most efficient policy option is defined by the nature of jointness on the supply side and by the characteristics of the output on the demand side, all costs and benefits being taken into account.

    Abstract: This book sets out a vision of devolved economic development policies capable of responding to the challenges of globalisation. The key features in this vision are flexible and networked institutions and local strategies emphasising entrepreneurship, human capital and social cohesion. Based on the proceedings of the OECD-Scottish Enterprise Glasgow conference, this publication examines how city and region governments and development agencies need to use their devolved powers to respond to globalisation. Trends and challenges are discussed and examples drawn from across the OECD. They address how cities and regions can develop strategies to assure their competitiveness in the globalising economy and how they can help counteract the negative effects of globalisation on marginalised people and places. Devolution is more than just a transfer of power, it is also a new spirit of co-operation and networking between different levels of government and their civil society partners. Brought together at the level of cities and regions, they can apply some promising development tools, for example for strengthening enterprise clusters, promoting training for a knowledge economy and regenerating distressed areas.
